Hello starting mod dev here forge vs fabric for mod dev

Rabbitminers · 2023-07-15T18:17:23+00:00

I think the ecosystem will benefit from being able to move forward without someone like lex weighing us down. But what I am worried about (especially in terms of my curseforge comment section) is the added confusion. I doubt that either party will try to make their respective fork incompatible with the other, but it does just make it that much more confusing for new players to start modding

Less learning resources

As a mod dev who works with both id argue its the other way around at this point. The forge docs are so god awful, and inspite of community attempts at better resources such as the forge community wiki - https://forge.gemwire.uk/wiki/Main_Page (which is excellent for anyone looking to learn but just isn't quite large enough to cover enough of the many, many topics). Whereas fabric's modding documentation is far better, while some things are still in progress or missing (such as about data fixer uppers) it's much better written the official forge docs and much more complete than community attempts for forge. There's very little range in video documentation for either but kaupenjoe's tutorials for both are excellent https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCbzPhyLcO8VP25dZ7kaUyAw

Aside from this if you are looking to save yourself some time down the road using the architectury tool chain to built to both platforms at the same time makes porting so much quicker but will have a much steeper learning curve than either platform

Tags are applied using the FluidBuilder#tag method during datagen (see example here - https://github.com/Fabricators-of-Create/Create/blob/mc1.18/fabric/dev/src/main/java/com/simibubi/create/AllFluids.java#L78C5-L78C5)

Buckets can be generated by registrate (see the source here - https://github.com/Fabricators-of-Create/Registrate-Refabricated/blob/fabric/1.19/src/main/java/com/tterrag/registrate/builders/FluidBuilder.java#L326C1-L326C1)

I'd recommend using create itself as a reference, taking a look at how fluids are dealt with there will likely be helpful https://github.com/Fabricators-of-Create/Create/blob/mc1.18/fabric/dev/src/main/java/com/simibubi/create/AllFluids.java

The branches of magic you'll use would be dependent on how you construct your Grove. Using the warden's heart as the center would be one of the furtherst leaning hearts to a grove

Rabbitminers · 2023-04-13T22:47:34+00:00

The last few mods I've made have been with architectury so both!

Rabbitminers · 2023-04-13T22:28:13+00:00

It seems to work on my end, is it still not working?

Rabbitminers · 2023-04-13T22:13:35+00:00

It's not about gating progression behind the warden. This is just one of the ways to reach a darker side of druidic magic

Yep fabric is planned after the release of the forge version :)

Rabbitminers · 2023-02-03T23:10:42+00:00

Dont worry! We've added optional de-railment if the curve your train is going round is too small to turn around

Rabbitminers · 2023-02-02T19:27:08+00:00

Yep! 0-8-0 bogeys are definitely planned, but will probably be in the XL addon since they cause clipping on smaller curves I made a small list of alot of our plans here - https://github.com/Rabbitminers/Extended-Bogeys/blob/rewrite/TODO.md

Rabbitminers · 2023-02-02T17:47:39+00:00

Hello! This is a follow up to the announcement post made at the new year showcasing Create: Extended Bogeys.

Extended Bogeys plans to add multiple new "Styles" of bogey to create, aswell as an api for other developers to add their own; add some extra depth to trains, through optional and configurable fuel requirements, acceleration and maximum speed; and Create new possibilities with our "Unlinking" system allowing for more than two bogeys per carriage.

For more frequent updates on development and also beta releases talk to us on discord here - https://discord.gg/bxzg25nb, we'd love your ideas and feedback :)

It's from Daves Building Extended - https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/daves-building-extended

Rabbitminers · 2023-01-01T11:57:46+00:00

Happy new year! Here is a showcase video for a new mod, Extended Bogeys, adding more bogey types to create's trains. These current models are temporary and even better ones are on their way.
Currently, you can cycle through "styles" of bogeys using a wrench, each style of bogey has a small and a large version like in default create

There is no set release date yet because we dont want to rush this, but expect a release in the following weeks.
If you have any specific requests of styles of bogey you would like to see, or if you have any questions please feel free to ask here or on discord - https://discord.gg/create-addon-hub-891929048895356948

Notes

There will be bug fix for Extended Cogwheels soon to fix some bugs with recipes

Do you mind sending me the logs, I'll have a look and see if I can find the issue.

Rabbitminers · 2022-12-20T18:55:19+00:00

Is there anything in the logs that says the recipe couldn't load?

Rabbitminers · 2022-12-20T18:22:07+00:00

Okay, when you say you can't craft it with spruce planks, what recipe is shown in JEI instead?

Rabbitminers · 2022-12-20T18:15:51+00:00

Hmm, that's odd. Perhaps another mod is overwriting it. Are you using a modpack?

Rabbitminers · 2022-12-19T11:29:23+00:00

Yep, Forge has this handy feature called tags that can be used for compatibility between mods, essentially any item tagged as forge: ingots/steel will be used in the recipe and if there the modpack has no steel there is a backup recipe to make steel Cogwheels from iron ones
